System Administration Utilities Β· elogtool

okay so. <cyan>elogtool</cyan> is literally the utility for managing elog events β€” it's from the <purple>System Administration Utilities</purple> collection and it's giving "tiny tool, big responsibilities" energy. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

elogtool β€” utility for managing elog events πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

elogtool COMMAND [[-U] -f <filename>]
elogtool [-h]

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

utility to read and edit elog events from a file or flashrom 🫢

that's it. that's the whole vibe. it reads, it edits, it does NOT play. πŸ’€


πŸŽ€ COMMANDS πŸŽ€

  • list β€” lists all the event logs in human readable format πŸ“‹ (yes bestie, human readable, we are not decoding hex tonight)
  • clear β€” clears all the event logs 🧹 (nuclear. gone. periodt.)
  • add <event_type> [event_data] β€” add an entry to the event log βž• (you're a main character now, you're IN the log)

πŸ’… OPTIONS πŸ’…

  • -f, --file <filename> β€” the File that holds the event log partition. If it's empty it will try to read/write from/to the RW_ELOG using flashrom. πŸ”₯ (iykyk)
  • -U, --utc β€” Print timestamps in UTC time zone 🌍 (no more doing timezone math in your head at 2am, we love to see it)
  • -h, --help β€” Print this help πŸ™ˆ

ok real talk bestie: -f being empty means it goes straight to flashrom and touches RW_ELOG. That's not a little oopsie, that's the real partition. Vibe check your filename first. 😭
